Abstract

During the Roman Imperial period, a much stronger connection was established between Anatolia and the Balkans, and interregional relations became multifaceted. In this process of interaction, the administrative, economic, and cultural rapprochement between the provinces of Moesia Inferior and Pontus et Bithynia is particularly noteworthy, as evidenced by both ancient sources and archaeological findings. As can be traced from epigraphic documents, various peoples originating from Bithynia, Galatia, Phrygia, Paphlagonia, etc., settled in cities in the Lower Danube provinces, which had become new economic routes and areas of opportunity, or began to do business in some cities. Particularly from the 2nd century AD onwards, the region stretching from Moesia to Bithynia became a common cultural basin, and the Anatolian peoples left significant cultural, religious and economic influences. The aim of this study is to evaluate the networks of interaction between Moesia and Anatolia in a socio-economic context, in light of epigraphic documents and ancient sources, and to reveal the contribution of Anatolia-centered population movements during the Roman Imperial period to integration processes and the creation of new identities.

Özet

Roma İmparatorluk döneminde Anadolu ve Balkanlar arasında eskisinden çok daha güçlü bir bağ kurulmuş ve bölgeler arası ilişkiler çok yönlü bir hal almıştır. Bu etkileşim sürecinde, özellikle Moesia Inferior ve Pontus et Bithynia eyaletleri arasındaki idari, ekonomik ve kültürel yakınlaşma gerek antik kaynaklar gerekse de arkeolojik buluntular sayesinde dikkat çekmektedir. Epigrafik belgelerden de takip edilebileceği üzere Bithynia, Galatia, Phrygia, Paphlagonia vb. kökenli çeşitli halklar, yeni ekonomik güzergâhlar ve fırsat alanları haline gelmiş olan Aşağı Tuna eyaletlerindeki kentlere yerleşmiş veya kimi kentlerde iş yapmaya başlamıştır. Özellikle MS II. yüzyıldan itibaren Moesia’dan Bithynia’ya kadarki bölge adeta ortak bir kültür bir havzası haline gelmiş ve Anadolu kökenli halklar kültürel, dini ve ekonomik açından önemli etkiler bırakmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, epigrafik belgeler ve antik kaynaklar ışığında Moesia ile Anadolu arasındaki etkileşim ağlarını sosyo-ekonomik bağlamda değerlendirmek, Roma İmparatorluk dönemindeki Anadolu merkezli nüfus hareketlerinin entegrasyon süreçlerine ve yeni kimliklerin oluşumuna katkısını ortaya koymaktır.
